Coming Thursday to Alex City — “My pleasure”

Cliff Williams / The Outlook Chick-fil-A in Alexander City will open Thursday with double drive thru lanes.

There is no more driving to find a “Grade A” chicken sandwich topped with an all important two pickles.

Chick-fil-A opens Thursday in Alexander City, so residents will no longer have to find an excuse to drive 30 or more minutes to get a meal from the chicken chain restaurant. Chick-fil-A’s isn’t a stranger to many in the Alexander City area but having one near Lake Martin is something new.
